Session Title: Modern Music for the Modern Student
Session Description: Programming experimental and non-traditional music that encourages composition through the use of non-traditional notation develops individual musicianship through improvisation, or creates student engagement through the integration of technology fosters higher-order thinking in the student musician. This session will sample repertoire from a variety of levels, highlighting elements of graphic notation, aleatoric opportunities, found percussion, improvisation, electroacoustic treatments, and minimalist techniques. Suggestions of score preparation and pedagogic strategies will assist educators in maximizing their student’s performance of “the music of now.”
